Tranmere v Swindon Town matchday thread

[Peter Venkman]

"Most" didn't think he was shit, "Most" think he is adequate, there is a big difference

Very much this, but that covers most of our team "adequate".

[adje]

I hate making excuses for the team, and in no way am I saying we didn’t deserve to lose, because we did. However, that ref was shocking. Sadly, just the latest in a very long line of terrible refs we’ve had this season

Not an excuse,it's a fact.

[adje]

Most thought Brewitt was fucking shit a few weeks ago.
Now he’s not in the team (for whatever reason) and everyone suddenly rates him after slating him all season…so Swindon…

Not me

Not many other managers would get away with 3/17 win ratio to be honest. Not saying he should go but the fact that we lose or draw so often from winning positions is scandalous

Morris was sacked with 4 wins in 18 so….

[Nemo]

It's totally reasonable to talk about Flynn and our recent form, but the bit before where we were flying was *also* under his watch. The 4 in 18 for Morris was literally his whole reign from the start to end.

[Batch]

over the last 10 we are joint bottom with 7 points. we are 2 goals (-12) better off than Sutton (-14).

I'm not using that to justify sacking Flynn. I don't currently subscribe to that

For sure.

But any normal Swindon regime would sack a manager performing at this level in L2.

And this is Flynn’s squad. He was “happy” with it.

But 9 games were at home, so those were free to freeloading ST holders, so don't count.

Flynn:
- Two goals given away. Were avoidable
- Stuck together and tried, but gave away soft goals
- Tried to put out the most senior team that was available
- Didnt have much chance to practice. UGM had been violently ill
- UGM had to get off the bus before they left
- 5 CBs out
- Fullbacks had no attacking moments with 4 at the back last week
- Created more today
- Ultimately the goals we are conceeding are killing us
- Crowd had turned on Tranmere. We were quite comfortable
- Look at the offside goal and the penalty. They were scandalous
- Not the first mistake this linesman has made
- Brewitt and Clayton extremely close
- UGM will be close
- Brewitt is to do with his patella tendonitis. Had to stay off feet to take down swelling
- RHM: Bad knee. Scan clear. But in discomfort. If player says he's struggling, the rest of us dont know how to pinpoint it
- Don't want it to be about bad decisions, but they are fact. But we are too easy to score against

Don’t forget with his new contract we probably can’t afford to sack him!

tried same old crap different  week .

Clear scan but still "troublesome". I call "shirker" rightly or wrongly

[Freeloader]

Sacking Flynn won't help, if it had to be done it would have had to happen with a month's preparation before the January window.
